Extending phpmailer</h3> 66<p> 67 68Extending classes with inheritance is one of the most 69powerful features of object-oriented 70programming. It allows you to make changes to the 71original class for your 72own personal use without hacking the original 73classes. Plus, it is very 74easy to do. I've provided an example: 75 76<p> 77Here's a class that extends the phpmailer class and sets the defaults 78for the particular site:<br> 79PHP include file: <b>mail.inc.php</b> 80<p> 81 82<table cellpadding="4" border="1" width="80%"> 83<tr> 84<td bgcolor="#CCCCCC"> 85<pre> 86require("class.phpmailer.php"); 87 88class my_phpmailer extends phpmailer { 89 // Set default variables for all new objects 90 var $From = "from@example.com"; 91 var $FromName = "Mailer"; 92 var $Host = "smtp1.example.com;smtp2.example.com"; 93 var $Mailer = "smtp"; // Alternative to IsSMTP() 94 var $WordWrap = 75; 95 96 // Replace the default error_handler 97 function error_handler($msg) { 98 print("My Site Error"); 99 print("Description:"); 100 printf("%s", $msg); 101 exit; 102 } 103 104 // Create an additional function 105 function do_something($something) { 106 // Place your new code here 107 } 108} 109</td> 110</tr> 111</table> 112<br> 113 114Now here's a normal PHP page in the site, which will have all the defaults set 115above:<br> 116Normal PHP file: <b>mail_test.php</b> 117<p> 118 119<table cellpadding="4" border="1" width="80%"> 120<tr> 121<td bgcolor="#CCCCCC"> 122<pre> 123require("mail.inc.php"); 124 125// Instantiate your new class 126$mail = new my_phpmailer; 127 128// Now you only need to add the necessary stuff 129$mail->AddAddress("josh@example.com", "Josh Adams"); 130$mail->Subject = "Here is the subject"; 131$mail->Body = "This is the message body"; 132$mail->AddAttachment("c:/temp/11-10-00.zip", "new_name.zip"); // optional name 133 134if(!$mail->Send()) 135{ 136 echo "There was an error sending the message"; 137 exit; 138} 139 140echo "Message was sent successfully"; 141</pre> 142</td> 143</tr> 144</table> 145</p> 146 147</body> 148</html>
